Produktbeschreibung
Corporate leaders are facing an unprecedented challenge from a new wave of trade protectionism on top of the fallout from an enormously costly pandemic, destructive wars, natural disasters, and festering inequality. What's more, many of them are shying away from their earlier embrace of progressive environmental and social policies, such as ESG (environmental, social, and governance issues) and DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion). Does this mean that the drive for corporate sustainability has crashed and burned? Author Helle Bank Jorgensen, who advises corporate boards around the world on how to deal with turbulent times, says the answer is a resounding No. In this practical book she taps into the insights of global business leaders to show how boards should operate to deal with these unprecedented challenges. Corporations have tremendous power to improve the world in ways that governments cannot, and if boards equip themselves to deal with these turbulent times, they can play a key role to make the world a better place for all of us.
